This all began from TwoBillsDrive member ChevyVanMiller reading this article by the Buffalo News and started a Go Fund me Campaign.

In a little more than two days, the Buffalo Bills' faithful raised more than $100,000 for former linebacker Darryl Talley.

The money was raised by more that 2,200 donors in a crowd funding campaign posted by a Bills fan named Frank Croisdale.

    did you even read the story?

I don't care if it is the Dolphins that do this, this is a good story. The guy has huge medical debts and what's wrong with charity? Jeesh.

 

Save up money, buy health insurance, etc.

 

 

Talley gets $39,000 annually from the NFL's total permanent disability policy,

 

That's more than many here earn a year.

 

If there were any real journalists in this country someone would dig up his career salaries and calculate how much money this guy blew.

 

Americans love a sob story though. Americans hate personal responsibility. Next they'll be donating to fat Olineman while they take interviews sipping a Mickey d's sweet tea.

I don't disagree with your point, which is why I did not contribute.

 

However, it's still a feel good story and the story I appreciate of it is that people are willing to donate to this cause.
